Default Replacing the D16Y7 in my Civic CX with a D16Z6 Wiring & mount ???

I am going to be replacing the D16Y7 in my Civic CX with a D16Z6 and I had some wiring and engine mounts questions.
So far I have:

1. D16Z6 complete engine with tranny and mounts
2. P28
3. Boomslang OBD2A to OBD1 conversion harness

Is this all I'm gonna need?

Since my CX did not have VTEC, will I have to add the wiring to the harness currently in the car?

I assume since it is a D-series that I can use the mounts that came with the D16Z6 OR the ones already in the car.

Will this be a: Drop the engine in, plug in the P28 into the conversion harness, the conversion harness gets plugged into the harness of the P2P, wire in the VTEC wire and turn the key and go.

OR

Get an aftermarket set of mounts to allow me to drop the engine in, plug in the P28 into the conversion harness, the conversion harness gets plugged into the harness of the P2P, change distributor, lots of re-wiring...etc/headaches/cursing and turn the key and...then it might not run....

I hope the answer is the first one Any other gotcha's that anyone has seen if they had done this before, please let me know. i would appreciate any help!

I did a B18C1 into a VX EG 5-6 years ago with my brother-in-law and that is the scope of my knowledge in the Honda hybrid world. I searched and found this and I ope the guy sees it: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1118270
